Investors pulled out of the growth-oriented section of the market following the Federal Reserve’s half-point rate hike to limit inflation, citing concerns that the economy is headed for trouble.

Amazon dropped almost 8% and Meta Platforms, the owner of Facebook, fell about 7% as big tech stocks crashed. Additionally, Apple shares tumbled nearly 6%, Alphabet shares fell about 5%, and Microsoft shares dropped 4%. Nasdaq shares fell 5% overall.

Elon Musk

As Elon Musk’s wealth decreased by $18.5 billion, it was the highest loss on the day for the world’s richest person. Elon Musk now has a net worth of $249 billion.

Jeff Bezos

Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos are currently valued at $140 billion, printing a $9.73 billion loss in wealth for the day.

Bernard Arnault

French fashion icon and Europe’s top entrepreneur, Bernard Arnault, is third on the list with a fortune estimated to be around $127 billion, though it has decreased by $4.84 billion for the day. It’s the only billionaire not from the tech sector in the top 4.

A large portion of his wealth comes from his controlling stake in LVMH, which he controls through his holding company Christian Dior.
